What if one of the most powerful productivity tools wasn't an app, a planner, or a morning routine, but a passport? For Evelyn Kelly and her daughter Natalie Kelly, travel has been far more than a hobby. Over three decades, it has shaped their resilience, adaptability, negotiation skills, and personal growth. What began as a three-week trip to Europe after a disappointing election loss grew into a lifelong adventure spanning seven continents, 88 countries, and all 50 U.S. states.  In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with the world-traveling mother-daughter duo behind Have a Love Affair with Travel: Your Ticket to an Exhilarating Life and Have a Love Affair with the USA. Together, they share how travel transformed their outlook on life, strengthened their relationship, and taught them lessons that extend far beyond airports and tourist attractions. Evelyn and Natalie reveal why getting out of your comfort zone is essential for growth, how negotiating with street vendors sharpened professional leadership skills, and why flexibility may be one of the most underrated productivity habits. They discuss navigating unexpected challenges, from finding themselves in Tunisia during the Arab Spring to adapting to less-than-luxurious accommodations in remote corners of the world. The conversation also explores practical ways anyone can begin traveling, even with limited time, money, or experience. Whether it's exploring destinations close to home, traveling solo, or learning how to maximize rewards programs, the Kellys show that meaningful travel is accessible to more people than they think. If you've ever dreamed of seeing more of the world, breaking free from routine, or finding fresh inspiration in your personal or professional life, this episode will encourage you to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start your next adventure today. Ready to trade comfort for curiosity? Listen now and discover how travel can transform your mindset, your relationships, and your productivity.   What We Discuss [00:00] Introduction [02:01] Meet Evelyn and Natalie Kelly [05:02] How a failed election campaign sparked a lifetime of travel [06:09] Getting bitten by the travel bug [07:14] Productivity lessons from planning international adventures [08:27] Why using travel experts can save time and stress [10:00] Travel safety and lessons from the Arab Spring [11:31] Travel as transformation, not recreation [12:27] The importance of leaving your comfort zone [13:20] What decades of travel teach about humanity [14:45] Flexibility as a productivity skill [15:55] Learning from uncomfortable travel experiences [17:11] Why travel helps you truly live life [19:03] Managing routines and habits while traveling [20:31] The rise of solo travel [21:10] How to travel despite time and budget constraints [22:00] Smart strategies for affordable travel [24:04] Negotiation lessons learned around the world [25:48] Building patience and resilience through travel [26:46] How to start small and overcome travel fears [28:30] Traveling with disabilities and accessibility considerations [29:23] The lasting impact of seeing the world [31:00] Why everyone should make time for adventure [32:00] Final thoughts and wrap-up  Notable Quotes [06:16] "We got bit by the travel bug, and we were never the same." – Evelyn Kelly [12:42] "Get out of the comfort zone because that is what is very, very important.

In this episode, The World Cup continues to deliver absolute scenes and, somehow, the chaos levels are only increasing.Matchday 2 gave us statement wins, controversial talking points, superstar performances, heartbreak, meltdowns, and enough social media discourse to power the internet for the next decade. The knockout stage is looming, calculators are being dusted off, and entire nations are now relying on results from teams they've spent years mocking.In this episode we unpack everything from another massive Australian performance against the USA, the teams exceeding expectations, the teams that have been stealing a living, and whether a certain little Argentine magician has finally ended the greatest debate football has ever known.Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé continues his quest to become football's benevolent dictator, the Golden Boot race is heating up, and we stumble across one of the most astonishingly stupid questions ever asked on live radio. Seriously. We're not overselling it. It might actually lower your IQ.But we're not stopping there.Matchday 3 is here, which means the spreadsheets are out, the calculators are overheating, and millions of fans have suddenly become experts in goal difference, goals scored, head-to-head records and obscure FIFA tiebreakers they didn't know existed three days ago.We break down every single group, who's through, who's hanging on by a thread, who's already cooked, and exactly what each nation needs to do to reach the Round of 32.The group stage is reaching its final act.Some nations are 90 minutes away from immortality. Others are 90 minutes away from becoming the punchline of the entire tournament.Expect chaos. Expect heartbreak. Expect calculators. Expect conspiracy theories about goal difference.This is where World Cups stop making sense and start becoming legendary.

Jason Longshore breaks down a wild Sunday at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

Egypt made history in Vancouver, beating New Zealand 3-1 to record their first World Cup win, 92 years after becoming the first African and Arab nation to appear at the tournament. A half-time tactical shift transformed the match after Egypt fell behind, with Mohamed Salah scoring his first World Cup goal before Trezeguet headed in a third from Salah's corner. Egypt now top Group G on four points, with an opportunity to win the group in their final match against Iran. Iran kept pace with a disciplined 0-0 draw against Belgium, with Alireza Beiranvand making a crucial save and Mehdi Taremi denied a goal by VAR. Belgium finished with ten men after a late red card. The Group G finale between Egypt and Iran is now one of the most compelling matches of the round. Morocco scored the fastest goal of the tournament so far, with Ismael Saibari scoring after 71 seconds against Scotland on Sunday to claim a 1-0 win. Morocco are level with Brazil at the top of Group C on four points. Spain recovered from their opening draw to beat Saudi Arabia 4-0, with 18-year-old Lamine Yamal scoring on his first World Cup start to become only the second player of that age to open the scoring in a World Cup match after Pele in 1958. Saudi Arabia have one point from two games and must beat Cape Verde to stay alive. Tunisia were eliminated after a 4-0 defeat to Japan, their second heavy loss in two matches under two different coaches. Tonight, France face Iraq at 1am UAE time, with Didier Deschamps warning his squad not to underestimate them. Argentina face Austria at 9pm, and Jordan take on Algeria at 7am in a match both sides need.

Welcome back to FUT IN REVIEW | World Cup Daily #20. Milestone alert! We have officially hit 20 daily tournament episodes. Today, Shaq (wearing a punishment orange shirt after losing a bet to John) and John team up at 6:00 AM to break down a thrilling, high-scoring slate of Day 10 matches at the World Cup 2026.We break down all the matches, tactical masterclasses, and rants unfiltered:The Houston Masterclass: John completely predicted it! Ronald Koeman started Brian Brobbey as a physical number nine, and the Oranje completely dismantled Sweden 5-1. We analyze how the early hydration break forced Sweden to alter their 5-back system, paving the way for braces from both Brobbey and Cody Gakpo, capped off by a late Crysencio Summerville strike.Undav's Toronto Rescue: Germany secures their spot in the knockouts after a brutal, physical midfield war with Ivory Coast (2-1). Frank Kessié shocked the Germans early, but Julian Nagelsmann's ultimate super-sub weapon, Dennis Undav, struck a lethal winner in the 96th minute. We debate if Undav should finally start or remain the tournament's best tactical bench weapon.The 15-Save Miracle: Ecuador threw absolute everything at Curaçao, registering 15 shots on target and hitting the crossbar, but the match ended in a thrilling 0-0 deadlock. The headline? 37-year-old goalkeeper Eloy Room pulled off a historic, generational performance with the most saves recorded in a single World Cup match since 1966. Plus, we highlight former Man United winger Tahith Chong's brilliant performance.Japan Cruise, Tunisia Sinks: Sacking your manager 4 days before facing a fluid Japan team doesn't work. We track the live action as Japan completely outclasses Tunisia 3-0 through goals from Daichi Kamada and Ayase Ueda, securing their cruise to the top of Group F alongside the Dutch.We are recording at 6:00 AM completely sleep-deprived to bring you every single match breakdown live!

L'Olanda sfodera una prestazione eccezionale contro la Svezia battendola 5–1. Il Giappone travolge la Tunisia con un netto 4-0.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup has brought the world to North America and to our legendary "churches" of Waffle House, Bass Pro Shops, and Ella Langley country music concerts. After a week into the tournament, Bryan and Mario review the best and worst of the matches so far, with their hype for Mexico and Argentina at an all-time high, and their hope that the USA can somehow shock everyone and make a historic run.Mario takes inspiration from Detroit sports radio and brings the game "Can We Say That?" to the podcast, asking Bryan various World Cup topics about the Scots and their fanbase, why American news media sucks and those visiting the country actually like it here, why Messi is THAT guy, and is Tunisia out of pocket for firing their head coach after just one game?Plus, Grand Theft Auto VI preorders are coming this June, and with the validation that the game is coming later in 2026, the boys (alongside many others) get ready to ask for time off from work and calculate how many billions Rockstar Games will make off the preorders alone. Spoiler: PTO is going to be running dry for every company. Shoutout Burger Motorsports.One episode away from the 200 milestone, and this podcast is out here celebrating soccer, culture, video games, and ready to celebrate. What that will be, you shall see.

Hà Lan đã có màn trình diễn ấn tượng với chiến thắng 5-1 trước Thụy Điển. Đức đã lội ngược dòng đánh bại Bờ Biển Ngà và giành vé vào vòng hai, trong khi Curaçao trở thành quốc gia nhỏ nhất giành được điểm tại World Cup. Nhật Bản, niềm tự hào châu Á hạ Tunisia.

On today's 15-minute briefing: Pochettino's Magic: The battle of the jocks saw the USA come out on top against Australia. Mauricio Pochettino simply continues to work his magic, and the hosts are looking seriously impressive. Scottish Heartbreak: A really difficult one to swallow for the Scots against Morocco. Looking back at the crucial moments, I have to ask: should they have had at least one penalty in that game? Brazil Bounce Back: A good result for Brazil against Haiti, showing they can absolutely put the so-called lesser nations to the sword. But do they actually have enough quality for the real monsters of the tournament? I am not entirely convinced yet. Turkey Tumble & Almiron's Red: Miguel Almirón was sent off for covering his mouth against Paraguay—honestly, this is the sort of no-nonsense officiating I can get behind and something the authorities should have been doing for a while. As for the game itself, the result caps off a very disappointing World Cup for Turkey, whom many were expecting so much more from. Dutch Delight: A huge result in what many expected to be an evenly contested fixture between the Netherlands and Sweden. The Dutch played some scintillating football at times, which makes me wonder: perhaps they have been written off too soon? Heartbreak for Côte d'Ivoire: Absolute heartbreak for Côte d'Ivoire, who were genuinely brilliant against Germany. There is a lot of talk around Diomande at the moment, and he is definitely good value for it—a great player. But Deniz Undav was the hero for Germany, showing great composure to secure the winner. Wasteful Ecuador: Eloy Room continued the tournament's theme of standout goalkeeping performances for Curaçao, but you have to say Ecuador were incredibly wasteful in front of goal. Japan Show Up: Japan are showing more signs of being the team everyone said they were ahead of this tournament, putting in a great attacking performance to ruthlessly punish Tunisia. Tournament Update: Qualified Teams: Mexico, USA, and Germany. Eliminated Teams: Haiti, Tunisia, and Turkey. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"Ed è un poco la notte e un poco l'alba" di Ilaria Tuti e "Le ragazze di Tunisi" di Luca Bianchini Il nome di Ilaria Tutti è legato sia ai romanzi noir con Teresa Battaglia, dai quali è stata tratta anche una serie tv, sia ai romanzi che riportano alla luce fatti e contesti storici, come "Fiore di roccia" sulle portatrici carniche durante la prima guerra mondiale. Il nuovo romanzo "Ed è un poco la notte e un poco l'alba" (Longanesi) -il titolo è una frase del poeta Pierluigi Cappello- fa parte della serie dei romanzi storici. Siamo in Friuli fra il 1915 e la fine della seconda guerra mondiale. La protagonista è Serafina, che vediamo prima bambina e poi giovane donna, una donna tenace, controcorrente, che ama stare da sola e indossare i pantaloni. In paese pensano che lei abbia lo stesso potere della nonna Silva, che veniva chiamata quando nascevano bimbi destinati a morire in poche ore: Silva riusciva a farli respirare nuovamente anche per pochissimo, giusto il tempo di battezzarli e farli morire in pace. Intorno a Serafina nasce la superstizione che lei porti fortuna e così viene convocata dalla levatrice durante i parti complicati. Da giovane donna, Serafina si trova ad affrontare la seconda guerra mondiale e soprattutto l'invasione della Carnia da parte dei Cosacchi: perseguitati in Russia perché fedeli allo zar, si erano alleati con Hitler che aveva indicato il Friuli come terra di conquista, dove avevano compiuto razzie e violenze, ma soprattutto si erano stabiliti nelle case degli abitanti. Qualcuno era fuggito, altri erano rimasti in questa anomala convivenza, come Serafina, costretta a condividere la sua casa con tre cosacchi. Nella seconda parte parliamo di "Le ragazze di Tunisi", di Luca Bianchini (Mondadori). Si racconta di una famiglia siciliana emigrata a Tunisi (non in America perché non c'erano abbastanza soldi e perché in quel modo si poteva essere più vicini alla propria terra). Siamo a cavallo fra gli anni '50 e '60, nel momento in cui la Tunisia diventa indipendente e, a causa delle nuove leggi, francesi e italiani iniziano ad andare via e a tornare in patria. Anna ha 16 anni e parla siciliano e francese (all'epoca Tunisi era veramente una Babele dal punto di vista delle lingue). Vive con la madre, che è un'abile sarta, e le due sorelle, mentre il padre si assenta per lunghi periodi per lavorare come contadino in campagna. Il rapporto con la migliore amica, Marinette, una francese di famiglia benestante, i primi innamoramenti, ma anche la scoperta di alcuni segreti di famiglia. Una storia che, come si legge in esergo, è ispirata alle vicende della madre dell'autore che a Tunisi ha vissuto gli anni più belli.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react to one of the biggest shocks of the World Cup so far as Cape Verde earn a stunning draw against Spain. Are Spain already in trouble, or is this just an early bump in the road? The guys also discuss whether Cape Verde can ride the momentum all the way to the knockout rounds before turning their attention to Lionel Messi. With what is likely his final World Cup underway, can Messi put the GOAT debate to rest forever by winning a second World Cup, or do Pelé and Maradona still have a claim to soccer immortality? Next, The Cooligans break down Tunisia's decision to appoint World Cup specialist Hervé Renard as head coach for the remainder of the tournament. Can Renard work his magic once again and guide Tunisia to an unlikely place in the knockout stages? Christian and Alexis also debate Cristiano Ronaldo's role with Portugal and ask whether the legendary forward is still one of the team's biggest weapons—or whether his presence has become more of a problem than a solution. To wrap up the show, the guys are joined by England presenter Michael Timbs to preview the Three Lions' World Cup campaign. Which players will be key to England's success? Can this generation finally deliver on decades of expectation? And after all these years, is football finally coming home?

Jason Longshore and Madison Crews break down the chaos of World Cup Monday, starting right here at home. Cabo Verde held Spain to a stunning 0-0 draw at Atlanta Stadium, with 40 year old goalkeeper Vozinha making save after save and becoming an overnight social media sensation. Jason and Madison dig into how Cabo Verde's defensive discipline neutralized Spain's possession, what the Spanish press is saying about the result, and why Vozinha's story, complete with a name inspired by a Brazilian World Cup legend, is one of the best of this tournament so far. Plus, Belgium needed a bizarre own goal off Romelu Lukaku's bench impact to draw Egypt, Saudi Arabia's goalkeeper stole a point off Uruguay, and Iran and New Zealand put on an instant classic. All four matches on the day ended in draws, the first time that has happened at a World Cup in 68 years. The 3-4-3 covers Christian Pulisic's calf injury, Neymar's ongoing absence from Brazil training, Tunisia's reported mid-tournament coaching change, and a preview of Argentina's title defense opener against Algeria.

The Beautiful Game: Soccer as a Guide to Living a Beautiful Life Living Compass Spirituality and Wellness Podcast Episode Summary Host Scott Stoner — Episcopal minister, licensed marriage and family therapist, 40-year soccer player, and lifelong fan — draws on the principles of "the beautiful game" to explore what it means to live a beautiful life. Recorded during World Cup season, this episode is an invitation to see the wisdom embedded in the world's most beloved sport. Key Themes 1. Simplicity Soccer is the simplest of games — all you need is a ball and two goals (even makeshift ones made from backpacks or duct-taped newspaper). With only 17 rules, it's accessible to the youngest children and the most resource-limited communities. Scott reflects on a teammate from Indonesia who learned to play with a homemade newspaper ball and garbage can goals — and became one of the finest players Scott has ever shared a field with. The invitation: where might simplicity open up more beauty in your own life? 2. Diversity The World Cup is a living celebration of human diversity. Scott reflects on the remarkable Spain vs. Cabo Verde match — the largest ranking gap in World Cup history — and the overnight fame of Cabo Verde's 40-year-old goalkeeper. He also shares from his own playing community, which includes people from Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, England, South Africa, Peru, Russia, Colombia, and Tunisia. Diversity isn't just welcome in the beautiful game — it's essential to it. The same is true of a beautiful life. 3. Flow Unlike American sports that emphasize constant action and scoring, soccer invites us to appreciate flow — the movement, the playmaking, the improvisational dance of the game. A 0-0 match can be among the most beautiful games ever played. Scott notes that soccer coaches do their real work in practice; during the game itself, the players are in charge. Life, too, calls us into this kind of trust — less micromanaging, more presence and responsiveness. 4. Improvisation Within the flow of the game, players are constantly making real-time decisions without a script. This improvisational quality — responding to what's actually happening rather than what was planned — is as essential to living well as it is to playing well. Reflection Questions Where might you simplify your life to create more beauty? How are you embracing diversity in your relationships and community? Are you focused more on goals and scores, or on the flow of the journey itself? Where is life inviting you to improvise rather than control? Connect with Scott
